I agree with Bayern! The game could have been won in the first minute today but he wasn’t clinical enough! I’d rather have him than not but not at £10m and he needs to do more!! He's 22 years old , playing for a new team he's scored 7 goals, unlucky not to be 10 to be fair. What you expecting ?

Anyone can score penalties, it’s not hard.

I'm amazed that some people don't recognise that there'll be numerous better strikers out there for £10m.
We have a scouting network that covers most, if not all, of the world. Cannon might have improved us, and he might be the best striker we've had for a while, but that doesn't mean he's worth £10m - it means that he's better than a load of absolute shit that we've had playing for us. There will be far better players out there for this kind of money.
If Cannon was any good, Leicester, who had an injury crisis at the start of the year, and are still playing a 38-year-old Jamie Vardy as their main striker, would NOT have loaned him out. He'd have been playing for them, but the fact they didn't pick him, even in a time of desperation, speaks volumes. They don't want him because he's nowhere near good enough for a team fighting to stay in the Premier League; therefore, he's not good enough for a team wanting to be promoted from the Championship either. They're asking £10m because they know there'll be clubs stupid enough to pay inflated fees for players from the Premier League. In short, they are taking the piss.
You might argue, well, we're not at that level anyway, but £10m for us is a hell of a lot of money in the world of FFP. It's not the sort of money we should be spending to marginally improve a lower mid-table strikeforce, because if we do manage to improve the rest of the team and start challenging, we'll only need to upgrade Cannon again to a striker who IS good enough for that level.
This all be a might be a moot point, because we probably don't have the wriggle room to splash £10m on one player. However, if we did, I'd want to think I was getting a player who could A) Lead the line effectively as a lone striker B) Not need replacing as a starter until we went up.
We need to be getting value for money, not pissing away massive fees on average players. That's what's got us into this mess in the first place.

This is like the disease we had with goalies. People are get so used to shit so when someone average to poor happens it gets elevated in their mind. Bonham being the one I’m thinking of. Awful goalie. But totally overrated because he’d occasionally make a save or save a penalty. We haven’t had someone that can score a penalty for a while, which is an absolute basic and now we do and it’s over excitement time. He’s done nothing to show he’s worth 3 million never mind 10.

If he performs to that level we won't stand a chance anyway. Leicester are being very clever and trying to recoup their outlay, we need to avoid having our pants pulled down by then like Spurs used to love doing to us.

Should be worth a similar fee as Sinclair Armstrong or Tommy Conway so £2.5m to £4.5m.
Anything more than that range and we are paying over the market odds, at £10m we’d be showing signs of what ruined us when we first came down.
It’s not the fees we’ve been paying for players in the last 18 months, so hopefully we aren’t stupid enough to consider it.
The nasty thing is with Gallagher injured and the desire for our forward to be a pressing forward it rules out Tezgel, Mmaee, Lowe as option's, so then our next in line is Ennis which is ridiculous. If we insist upon the pressing forward we need to sell all of these forwards.

He should have scored in the first 30 seconds yesterday but I’m glad he’s in our team. He makes good runs and works his arse off. Gets into good positions. But is he worth 10 mil? He could score 15-20 goals this season something we haven’t had for a while.

Neither of those strikers would get 10 in a season, he's clearly going to regularly score way more than that See the fees for Stanfield,Archer and Delap That's the market rate for young goalscorers at this level

He’s certainly not been as clinical as you’d like with some of the chances he’s had in open play, but his all round game has improved a lot and I think this week is probably the best he’s played from a team perspective.
I wouldn’t be spending anywhere near £10 Million on him though, but I don’t think we’ll be doing that with any player so not sure it matters. He’s probably about as good as we can hope for as a premier league loan signing.

Watching the highlights back, that miss in the first minute was even worse than I thought from the Boothen end.
On a plate, had time to take a touch but shouldn’t have even needed it.

If Steve Cooper got on the line to Ipswich's manager and offered him that deal, he'd piss himself laughing, as would Birmingham's manager etc etc. Those players are all a level or two above Tom Cannon, hence why they're valued at what they are. (Stansfield maybe not, as that was a clear piss take from Fulham.)

Just because he's not wanted by one manager doesn't make a player bad

Cannon and Vardy were literally their only fit strikers and they still sent him out on loan!

I thought he should have scored with that early chance yesterday but it’s not like he’s missing chance after chance like Sam Surridge is it.
Whether he’s worth £10m is definitely worthy of debate but when I’m seeing figures of £3m that’s just delusional in my opinion. Using Surridge as the benchmark we got £2.2m for him and he was shocking for us scoring 2 in 20 league appearances.
Cannon is younger and has far more potential than Surridge ever did.

When you can be so so wrong about a player it puts doubts on any judgement you have on any other player

You might argue, well, we're not at that level anyway, but £10m for us is a hell of a lot of money in the world of FFP. It's not the sort of money we should be spending to marginally improve a lower mid-table strikeforce, because if we do manage to improve the rest of the team and start challenging, we'll only need to upgrade Cannon again to a striker who IS good enough for that level. This all be a might be a moot point, because we probably don't have the wriggle room to splash £10m on one player. However, if we did, I'd want to think I was getting a player who could A) Lead the line effectively as a lone striker B) Not need replacing as a starter until we went up. We need to be getting value for money, not pissing away massive fees on average players. That's what's got us into this mess in the first place. I absolutely don’t think he’s worth 10 million and I can’t imagine we’d pay anyway near that. I’d be thinking between 3 and 4 million is fair enough. Over that and I’d be looking elsewhere. In which case you will be looking a long time

I like Cannon, bet he would be best part of 10m though. There will be someone either coming down o just going up that will punt on him

His finishing in the warm up yesterday was very very impressive. He was head and shoulders above the rest of his teammates

Should be worth a similar fee as Sinclair Armstrong or Tommy Conway so £2.5m to £4.5m. Anything more than that range and we are paying over the market odds, at £10m we’d be showing signs of what ruined us when we first came down. It’s not the fees we’ve been paying for players in the last 18 months, so hopefully we aren’t stupid enough to consider it. The nasty thing is with Gallagher injured and the desire for our forward to be a pressing forward it rules out Tezgel, Mmaee, Lowe as option's, so then our next in line is Ennis which is ridiculous. If we insist upon the pressing forward we need to sell all of these forwards. Armstrong: 4 goals in 39 matches (23/24), 2 in 14 this season Conway: 10 in 39 (23/24), 5 in 11 this season Conway is pretty good comparison, but just feel like Cannon is potentially a level above these 2 would be happy us spending up to about 7/8 million on him, spread the costs on a 5 year deal and its a no brainer for me
